Creator here - here&#x27;s a blog post explaining the reasoning for the site - <a href="http://knowingwhattosay.com/confessions" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;knowingwhattosay.com&#x2F;confessions</a><p>Basically as a freelance client hiring a freelancer is a weird proposition because you don&#x27;t know what you&#x27;re getting before it&#x27;s too late. Productized services take care of this because they outline exactly what you&#x27;re getting before you buy.

I think the landing needs some work. The value prop of the landing page is vaguely discussing a service product in a similar pattern to Fiverr.com - however the listings are from very experienced consultants, and the productized service offerings they give are very different from the Fiverr model.<p>High end consultants will offer packages like a &quot;Roadmap Session&quot;, which is typically just a flat rate consulting session where the deliverable is a polished project proposal, with the anticipation that the client will gain confidence and hire the consultant for the full project proposed in the roadmap.<p>In the case of Fiverr they do service-as-product really well, however the suppliers basically use a grittier version same loss-leader method of charging for the $5 product package on Fiverr and using that as a gateway to having the client hire them on at full rate for other projects longer term. (Though in many cases they just sell simple info products)<p>The difference with Fiverr is the client often gets a deliverable that they need right then and there like a design or a video etc. A high end consultant rarely delivers something like &quot;a new website design&quot; as a product package, they&#x27;ll instead deliver a powerpoint presentation about how to approach your new website.<p>A high quality custom website design can&#x27;t be just packaged up, it takes a lot of time and effort. There are nuances and requirements that change from client to client and different levels of value contributed. Charging a single flat fee for every website would be a disaster. But a proposal wrapped up as a roadmap is pretty cut and dry and pays dividends with more client work.<p>So those are the types of products you&#x27;re getting on this website. They just need to be communicated in a more honest way

I&#x27;m not getting it - the marketing says products are already created, so you can jut buy them, but the front page is giving you options to purchase consulting sessions from freelancers, not products.
